About Me

Hi! My name is Paisley Schick, and I’m currently a junior at Clinton High School. I'm actively involved in school activities, serving as a captain of the varsity volleyball team and as the secretary of our FFA officer team.

Outside the classroom, my family and I raise and show Simmental cattle at the national level year-round. I also serve as the Secretary of the Illinois Junior Simmental Association, where I enjoy mentoring younger members and helping them discover their passion for showing cattle. Most of my time is spent in the barn working on show heifers alongside my two older sisters.

In addition to showing cattle, I’m very passionate about livestock judging. I’ve had the opportunity to compete in several national contests and look forward to more in the future. After graduation, I plan to attend college and join a collegiate livestock judging team.

I was inspired to join the CEO program by my older sisters, who I’ve always looked up to. Seeing how much the program helped them grow as individuals motivated me to take part as well. I'm also planning to take over my family’s trucking company after college, so I saw this as a great opportunity to gain valuable insight into the business world. I’m excited to see how much I grow through this experience by the end of the year!
